Demanding disqualification and removal of Cabinet Minister Aman Arora citing his conviction by a sub-divisional court in a 16-year-old case, local RTI activist PC Bali has written to Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann raising questions on Arora being allowed to hoist the national flag during the Republic Day celebrations here.

Earlier, a court in Sangrur sentenced Arora and eight others to rigorous imprisonment of two years in December last year. Arora had later stated that he would challenge the verdict in a higher court. While demanding intervention of the Chief Minister, Bali wrote, “It is urged that Aman Arora be promptly replaced with a suitably eligible person for the Republic Day ceremony.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
